Buying in shopping centres – what will change?

COVID-19 has accelerated the incoming revolution. How will the ecosystem of shopping centres change as a result?

12.30-13.00
Retail in shopping centres – the perspective of owners and managers of shopping centres

Will rents sharply decrease as a result of the pandemic and turn properties valuation upside down? Who will fill the void after tenants have terminated their tenancy agreements? Will some shopping centres have to be reinvented? Will e-commerce prove to be a breath of fresh air?

The market cannot stand the void. What assets should we invest in nowadays?

The first quarter of 2020 was very good for the transaction market in Poland. It was also a record-breaking period for the warehousing sector, Today investors are interested in warehouses and they are to a lesser extent interested in office blocks. Shopping centres and hotels are currently not being taken into consideration. How long will it last? Which sectors will remain more resilient to the effects of the pandemic? Dormitories, nursing homes, facilities from the “health care” sector – what other classes of assets will be the centre of attention of investors?
